Best coffee I had in and around Capetown. Service was excellent and the Eggs Benedict with Avo were delicious.

Even though highly regarded Condé Nast, Truth doesn't have as good coffee as the higher end of NY or CA coffee shops. I found the espresso drinks bitter, despite trying two of their more premium beans that require an up charge. I would have liked to see more "trendy" bean options, such as coferments and different types of wash process. Their tables are also quite uncomfortable, with the perimeter lined with gear shaped teeth that would snag on sleeves and bags.
